As the weather starts to get colder and drier, dry skin can be an issue regardless of your skin type. Your lips can also be a victim of winter weather and are more likely to look dry and flakey. Not only can this affect your lipstick application, but it also gives your pucker a not-so-flattering appearance. Luckily, you can remove dry flakes on your lips by adding a lip scrub to your skin care routine. Need a rec? Reach for one of our picks of the best lip scrubs—a la L’Oreal Paris—for a smooth pout, below.

LIP SCRUB #1: L’Oréal Paris Pure-Sugar Nourish & Soften Cocoa Scrub

This scrub can be used on both your face and lips, so you can get smooth, soft skin all over your complexion. Formulated with three pure sugars, finely crushed cocoa, luxurious coconut oil, and rich cocoa butter, the buttery-soft scrub is kind to your skin while providing gentle yet effective exfoliation. The scrub removes dirt, oil, and impurities to leave your lips looking healthy and nourished.

How to use it: Smooth a small amount with dry fingers onto clean, dry skin skin. Massage the scrub over your lips with wet fingers then rinse with warm water. You can use this scrub up to three times a week to smooth, refine, and improve the overall look on your lips.

LIP SCRUB #2: L’Oréal Paris Pure-Sugar Smooth & Glow Grapeseed Scrub

This face and lip scrub is formulated with a blend of three pure sugars—blonde, brown, and white—and finely ground acai, nutrient-rich Monoi, and grapeseed oil. The sugar granules melt as you scrub, allowing this ultra-soft sugar scrub to be truly kind to your skin while providing deep, yet gentle exfoliation. Dirt, oil, and impurities are effectively removed and dull skin is polished away. While you can use this face scrub on your lips, the product is also available in a smaller tube to be solely used as a lip scrub perfect for exfoliating lips before makeup.

How to use it: Smooth a small amount of the scrub onto clean, dry skin and lips with dry fingers. Massage over face with wet fingers and rinse with warm water. You can use this scrub up to three times a week.

Formulated with three pure sugars and real Kona coffee grounds sourced directly from the Kona Coast of Hawaii, this scrub removes dirt, oil, and impurities to leave your skin feeling smooth, energized, and invigorated. Tired skin is resurfaced to look awakened with reduced signs of fatigue. The scrub is formulated without microbeads and harsh exfoliants and is paraben-free, making it suitable for all skin types.

How to use it: You can use this scrub up to three times a week on both your face and lips. Smooth a small amount of product onto clean, dry skin with dry fingers. Then, massage the scrub over your face and lips with wet fingers. Rinse with warm water.
